Vessel

Black glazed vessel with a conical foot and conical, attached neck ending in a thick mouth rim. The circular belly has a point in the centre on both sides, around which a feather pattern is arranged in a circle. The centre part is made of clay, the neck is made of plaster and was probably added later. The mix of materials and the varying quality of the vessel parts suggest that this is not an original or antique vessel. A new form was created by combining various elements - presumably older and newer ones. It is likely that it was created for trade in Egypt in the late 19th century. The Gewerbemuseum Ulm bought the vessel together with other objects in September 1887 from the Ulm citizen Julie Mathilde Theodora von Schneider.
